The story of the silver 10 Peso from Uruguay, why did somebody have 5,000 of these coins in the vault under the World Trade Center, its from 1961 and its silver, but the coins are Uncirculated so maybe somebody though it was a good investment in silver coins at the time and bough a whole lot of them I am not sure. But the story is that these coins where some of the first coins to be graded by Collectors Universe and that there where 5,000 coins of this 10 Peso silver coin from 1961.

The coin is frequent on ebay and always at a great price for a WTC coin

So I think we should all go home and have a look at our WTC coins, there is a coin on Ebay right now a WTC $1 Silver eagle that has a double die error. The guy selling it has explain it very well in these pictures.

Its called a 9 -11- 01 WTC Ground Zero Recovery Error. Double die reverse its the first once of its kind I have seen but with all the silver eagle out there from the WTC I am sure there are more.
You will find the coin below along with other WTC Coins

So the other day I was looking on E-Bay for WTC coins believe me something I do a lot both to keep up with the prices on coins but also to make sure I don't miss a coin that is not up on the web site. So it struck me how much difference there are in prices on one coin. Take the WTC 2001 $1 Silver eagle, I have seen that coin on E-bay from about $199 to around $450 and any amount in between. When somebody runs a no reserve auction the price normally lands right around $200 which I consider the fair price for the coin in this market. Well it made me think that I could make a price comparison under each coin from the WTC. So if you go under the $1 silver eagle right now you should see live the different price on the coin and be able to find the right price. Its this code stuff I use that comes from E-bay so sometimes it brings other coins in also but I think it will give you a better picture of the prices of a coin.

This Challenge comes from Marry Lewis to all buyers and sellers of WTC coins, she is ready to auction of two WTC coins a 2000 $1 Gem Uncirculated and a WTC $1 Silver 2001 Gem Uncirculated 100% of the proceeds from the Auction will go to the families of the victims of 9/11. She challenge all of us selling or buying WTC coins to donate at least one coin, and give the proceeds to the families of the victims. I think this is a great idea and I will list every Charity Auction on this site and keep it on the front page for all to see and bid on. Everyone that wants to join this charity drive please send me your E-bay link and I will post it in this article.

So what we are asking for is a bid on the charity auction where 100% goes to the victims family of 9/11 or put 1 WTC coins up for auction and give 100% to the WTC victims families. Lets get this thing going.... Email me your E-Bay Links.
